Hi guys. I just want your opinion on this setup for gaming/streaming. (Some of the components, like the case, were chosen because my desk setup is all white and black and for a good looking setup, that's what i am trying to achieve here too.) Thanks in advance.

Looks good, maybe you should get the 2600? without X and if i am not wrong the X doesn't come with a cpu cooler so you need to get one.

You may also want to consider a 1070ti instead as it has same fps as 1080  

[Snaw]

Actually the 2600X comes with AMD Wraith Spire Cooler.

Doesn't the 1070 Ti  brings less performance? I chose 1080 because they are offering COD:BO4 and of course for better performance.

the x does come with a stock cooler, and the ti does not provide the same number of fps as the 1080, unless oced. Unoced, the 1080 runs about 10 fps higher than the 1070ti.

 Build looks good to me!

 

Are you planning on getting/do you have a G-Sync monitor to use with that rig?

 

And FYI, that motherboard doesn't appear on the compatibility list for the fan you have, although...it does contain a lot of MSI B350 boards, and it doesn't look like Cooler Master has updated this list for any 450 boards...

I'd go with either the Phanteks Enthoo Pro M TG or the Fractal Design Meshify C for a case for better airflow. They only cost about ten dollars more.

Yeah, but G-Sync monitors are very expensive. is it really worth? really, really, really? 
Dell S2716DG or MSI Optix MAG27CQ

I liked  the Fractal Design Meshify C. I'm gonna research that. Thank you very much.

I would say so. A GTX 1080 will push a "normal" monitor past its refresh rate, so it will at times be pumping more frames than the monitor can handle without G-Sync. That causes screen tearing.

Do i really have to spend 600€ on a monitor, i need more opinions on this one

Is the NZXT H500 better than the Phanteks P400s in terms of airflow?

When Oc'ed the 1070ti has the same fps as the 1080. When the 1080 is oc'ed it only get a few more fps. If the 1070ti is bundled with COD i would highly suggest just getting the 1070ti and same that money for maybe a steam gift card

I agree, 1070ti when OC can match the performance of a stock 1080. But, u should also be worried about the thermals. Also, the price gap between 1070ti & 1080 is about $30-40.  So, I'd rather suggest him to go with a 1080. Also,1080 will have a slightly better resale value...
